Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2022189966A1] The present nvention relates to a method for determining the presence of a target microorganism (2) in a biological sample (1) comprising the steps of: - providing a strip (10) made of porous material, said strip (10) having at least one fixation zone (12) on which at least one phage (4) exposing a peptide (3) selective for said microorganism (2) is fixed, and a deposition zone (11), separated from said fixation zone (12) and intended to receive a portion of said biological sample (1), said phage (4) being bound to a marker (14) in deactivated form; - contacting said biological sample (1) with said strip (10) on said deposition zone (11) and eluting said microorganism (2) through said strip (10) so that said microorganism (2) reaches said fixation zone (12) to form a phage-target microorganism complex (15) and release said marker (14') in activated form; - detecting said marker (14') in activated form.
